If I have multiple meta tag concern, should I make a question about each of them separately or make one generic post with all the concern as individual answers to it something like this ?? @all

@amflare congrats

Q: Do we really need film/TV Show/Franchise tags in meta?

I noticed that here on meta there are many Film/TV show and franchise tag on meta, like: star-wars star-trek disney-star-wars On main site they make sens but do we really need them on meta too?

@DaaaahWhoosh Doctor Strange has already fought Harry Potter. Didn't you know?

SQB

Has @lisardggY been in here? (Guess not).

If I start a room with a user, does that user automatically get a notification? (Seems it would be pretty useless if they didn't, but I don't know).

@DaaaahWhoosh but how long does the Whoosh take?

@SQB Yes it does, apparently. Good to know; could be used for non-mods to simulate a "super-ping".

So Spiderman: Homecoming is good too? Now I have to choose between two superhero films.

SQB

Why Not Both?

YES! Lenses have arrived, so my new pair of eye-glasses will probably be ready tomorrow!

DaaaahWhoosh

@SQB it's about 0.25 seconds or less, though I suppose you could draw it out if you wanted to.

Ankit Sharma

@SQB no not really

Daily floof 2017-07-19

I wonder if she wears a helmet when riding a bike

@Randal'Thor my-hero

@Mithrandir This abomination is what happens if I don't post a floof early.

Mithrandir

sighs here we go again

Gallifreyan

@Adamant I saw that before, but never learned the context. What is Harry doing there?

Mithrandir

@Gallifreyan You have no soul.

Gallifreyan

Derpy

@Mithrandir Nabeshin daughter?

DaaaahWhoosh

14:28

@Gallifreyan I initially thought that was a dachshund, now I am disappointed

Gallifreyan

Mithrandir

...that just looks freaky.

Gallifreyan

You have no soul.

amflare

14:41

I like my soul how I like my coffee... black

wait no... the other way around

actually that doesn't change anything...

DaaaahWhoosh

I like my coffee like Dark Souls: over and over again until I can either get work done or rage-quit and break my computer

Gallifreyan

Derpy

@DaaaahWhoosh Vanguaaaaaard................

amflare

14:56

Is there a way to suggest an edit despite the fact I can unilaterally make one?

Mithrandir

nope

unfortunately

Gallifreyan

@amflare Just make it and leave a comment saying the author can reverse it if they wish.

That's what I do all the time.

@amflare I like my coffee how I like my revenge: served cold.

amflare

@SQB Is that because you forget about your revenge as well and it just sits on your desk for hours?

DaaaahWhoosh

they say revenge is sweeter when you let it get cold

SQB

> Revenge is a dish best served cold — Klingon proverb

amflare

> But it can be easily reheated, in the microwave of evil! - Megamind

DaaaahWhoosh

@SQB I've always wondered, what does it mean for revenge to be cold?

SQB

16:27

Actually, I like my coffee black ass my heart and sweet as my revenge.

@DaaaahWhoosh not in the heat of the moment.

But premeditated, meticulously planned.

amflare

@DaaaahWhoosh Some time after the fact. Sometimes after one would usually assume no revenge was incoming.

DaaaahWhoosh

oh, yeah that makes sense.

Q: An humorous old US science fiction movie about time loop in space similar to groundhog day

An old US science fiction movie about time loop, with many astronauts in the space, time loops in the Stonehenge-similar place, the actor plays golf once in his time loop, something like "Star Trek" or "Intersteller". The Stonehenge-similar place is the most clear that I can remember. The movie i...

science-fiction time-travel groundhog-day

DaaaahWhoosh

ooh, I might know that one

it's an episode of SG-1

season 3 or something... I've been reprimanded multiple times for not paying attention in these meetings, otherwise I'd look it up

nooooo, someone else found it already

amflare

17:05

I got tired of the background stars behind chat being borked, so I made this. Figured I'd share it with the rest of you.

DaaaahWhoosh

chat has background stars?

amflare

yeah....?

Do you need to clean your screen?

DaaaahWhoosh

ooh, yeah it does, I can only see them under your posts. Otherwise it's too dark

I put my monitor brightness on its lowest setting so it won't eat my battery during meetings

(also yes, my screen is super-dusty)

1 hour later…

Skooba

18:22

@DaaaahWhoosh I didn't notice them for a while either

amflare

18:59

@Skooba - That post did need mod intervention to do anything to it. What are you talking about?

Skooba

@amflare which post?

Marvin

Q: Is [meta] a bit too meta?

I have recently noticed on the Meta site there is a tag meta... This seems a bit redundant, we are already on the Meta site, so all questions or discussion here will be "meta". There is currently no tag wiki or usage guidance either, so at the very least this information should be filled out. H...

discussion tags tag-blacklist-request

amflare

@Skooba IDK how to link it, but I'm referring to my flag you declined

Derp

nvm

I'm misreading the notification

Skooba

@amflare I am not a mod, I don't decline flags. If it was from the review queue /shrug

oh okay

I actually have a shot at a Necromancer badge:

Q: Was General Shang also affected?

In Arrival, we see the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis taken to a whole another level, allowing Louise Banks to experience into the future and solve the communication problem as well as prevent a global war. She is able to do that through witnessing a fancy party 18 months later, during which General Sh...

@Donald.McLean I'm surprised to see you don't have one already.

I have 8 already.

19:38

@SQB Well, except for story ID question, which I don't go out of my way to research, we don't have all that many unanswered questions.

amflare

Woah, no one has ever earned the Tenacious or Unsung Hero badges.

SQB

We have too small a stack to have answers go unnoticed.

Q: A weird scifi/horror movie with mind controlling brain in a jar and some erotic scenes

This is a movie I've seen a long time ago. It was a weird mix of SciFi, Horror and Thriller, I think - but it might have just been a soft porno with me mainly remembering pieces of the story ;) Speaking of which, there was a brain in a jar that had mind control capabilities. It occasionally took...
